Definitions

• the present invention relates generally to novel phthalazinone and isoquinolinone compounds, and their analogues thereof, which are inhibitors of Rho kinases, compositions containing them, and methods of using them, for example, for the treatment or prophylaxis of disorders associated with aberrant Rho kinase activity.
• Rho-Kinase is a member of the serine-threonine protein kinase family.
• ROCK exists in two isoforms, ROCK1 and ROCK2 (Ishizaki, T. et al, EMBO J., 15: 1885-1893 (1996)).
• ROCK has been identified as an effector molecule of RhoA, a small GTP-binding protein (G protein) that plays a key role in multiple cellular signaling pathways.
• RhoA a small GTP-binding protein
• ROCK and RhoA are ubiquitously expressed across tissues.
• the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway is involved in a number of cellular functions, such as ACTIN® organization, cell adhesion, cell migration, and cytokinesis (Riento, K. et al, Nat. Rev. Mol. Cell Biol, 4:446-456 (2003)).
• RhoA Upon activation of its receptor, RhoA is activated, and, in turn, it activates ROCK. Activated ROCK phosphorylates the myosin-binding subunit of myosin light chain phosphatase, which inhibits activity of the phosphatase and leads to contraction. Contraction of the smooth muscle in the vasculature increases blood pressure, leading to hypertension.
• Rho A/ROCK signaling pathway plays an important role in signal transduction initiated by several vasoactive factors, for example angiotensin II (Yamakawa, T. et al, Hypertension, 35:313-318
• ROCK inhibitors fasudil (Asano, T. et al, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 241 : 1033-1040 (1987)) or Y-27632 (Uehata, M. et al., Nature, 389:990-994 (1997)) further illustrate the link between ROCK and cardiovascular disease.
• ROCK expression and activity have been shown to be elevated in spontaneously hypertensive rats, suggesting a link to the development of hypertension in these animals (Mukai, Y. et al, FASEB J., 15: 1062-1064 (2001)).
• ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 (Uehata, M. et al, Nature, ibid.) was shown to significantly decrease blood pressure in three rat models of hypertension, including the spontaneously hypertensive rat, renal hypertensive rat and deoxycortone acetate salt hypertensive rat models, while having only a minor effect on blood pressure in control rats. This reinforces the link between ROCK and hypertension.
• ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 also inhibited neointimal formation in rats (Sawada, N. et al, Circulation, 101 :2030-2033 (2000)).
• ROCK inhibitor would be useful in treating other cardiovascular diseases.
• fasudil was shown to reduce both the infarct size and neurologic deficit (Toshima, Y., Stroke, 31:2245-2250 (2000)).
• the ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 was shown to improve ventricular hypertrophy, fibrosis and function in a model of congestive heart failure in Dahl salt- sensitive rats (Kobayashi, N. et al, Cardiovascular Res., 55:757-767 (2002)).
• ROCK ROCK-related diseases
• coronary vasospasm Shiokawa, H. et al, Cardiovasc. Res., 43: 1029-1039 (1999)
• cerebral vasospasm Sato, M. et al, Circ. Res., 87: 195-200 (2000)
• ischemia/reperfusion injury Yada, T. et al, J. Am. Coll. Cardiol, 45:599-607 (2005)
• pulmonary hypertension Fukumoto, Y. et al, Heart, 91 :391-392 (2005)
• angina Shiokawa, H. et al, J. Cardiovasc. Pharmacol, 39:319-327 (2002)
• renal disease Satoh, S. et al, Eur. J. Pharmacol, 455: 169-174 (2002)
• erectile dysfunction Gonzalez-Cadavid, N.F. et al., Endocrine, 23: 167-176 (2004)).
• RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway allows formation of multiple competing lamellipodia that disrupt the productive migration of monocytes (Worthylake, R.A. et al, J. Biol. Chem., 278: 13578- 13584 (2003)). It has also been reported that small molecule inhibitors of Rho Kinase are capable of inhibiting MCP-1 mediated chemotaxis in vitro (Iijima, H., Bioorg. Med. Chem., 15: 1022-1033 (2007)). Due to the dependence of immune cell migration upon the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway one would anticipate inhibition of Rho Kinase should also provide benefit for diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease.
• ROCK inhibitors may also be useful in other diseases involving smooth muscle hyper-reactivity, including asthma and glaucoma (Shimokawa, H. et al, Arterioscler. Thromb. Vase. Biol, 25: 1767-1775 (2005)).
• Rho- kinase has been indicated as a drug target for the treatment of various other diseases, including airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness (Henry, P.J. et al., Pulm.
• CVD cardiovascular diseases
• ROCK inhibitors Although there are many reports of ROCK inhibitors under investigation (see, for example, US 2012/0122842 Al, US 2010/0041645 Al, US 2008/0161297 Al, and Hu, E. et al, Exp. Opin. Ther. Targets, 9:715-736 (2005)), fasudil is the only marketed ROCK inhibitor at this time. An i.v. formulation was approved in Japan for treatment of cerebral vasospasm. There remains a need for new therapeutics, including ROCK inhibitors, for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, cancer, neurological diseases, renal diseases, fibrotic diseases, bronchial asthma, erectile dysfunction, and glaucoma.
